Just started "The Wars of the Jews" by Josephus and came across this gem:

An elderly king "supposed that, by exercising himself again in martial affairs, he should get rid of this distemper; but by making such expeditions at unseasonable times, and forcing his body to undergo greater hardships than it was able to bear, he brought himself to his end.”

But what a way to go, right?!
